The Old Inn, Widecombe in the Moor

I visited The Old Inn on a Thursday in May with a couple of friends after a long and tiring day. I had recommended it after a pleasant previous visit made better by Munich Hofbrau on tap.

When we arrived in the pub at 10pm and ordered a round there wasn't anyone else in there. About 20 minutes later the manager turned the music off which struck us as a little odd. At 10.30pm we went to the bar to get another round before the bell rang for last orders.

Our simple, "Same again please," was met with an abrupt, "We're shut," from the manager.

We left.

And went to the Rugglestone Inn down the road.

The Rugglestone Inn, Widecombe in the Moor

A cosy interior, good beer on-tap and friendly staff made us feel right at home when we stopped by one weekend in May. The portions were generous and tasty. The staff were genuinely friendly and this place was full of friendly locals both evenings we went.

I look forward to going back!
